After 3D modeling, painting, generative art and photography, Street-Art is the next big artistic movement invested in the NFT revolution.
Cryptos and NFT’s are currently experiencing a slowdown, but despite this, some projects deserve special attention, including Streetlab.io. This is the new decentralized platform dedicated to #StreetArtNFT. It is a platform that specializes in drops of NFT collections created by Street-Artists. And unlike some platforms that aim to “mark” photographs of physical Street-Art works, Streetlab.io invites Artists to unleash their creativity through digital works.
Streetlab.io: the decentralized platform dedicated to Street-Artists
Streetlab.io is a platform that allows Street-Artistsexploring the world of NFTs. In fact, it opens up new fields of creativity in them, directly connecting them to their collectors. In addition, it gives them access to new sources of income. In addition, Streetlab.io is aimed at building the largest #StreetArtNFT community.

What sets this platform apart from others, Streetlab.io invites street-artists to experiment digitally with their journey and their inspirations. This encourages collaboration with other artistic currents.
This is not a platform that focuses on existing physical works sold by NFT. In fact, the goal is became Artblocks in Street-Art. That is, a place where street artists can launch their projects and where collectors can buy NFT StreetArt.
Founders and Teams
Alexis D’Eudeville and Sebastien Rouby are the two founders of Streetlab.io. Alexis left Google to focus on Web 3, convinced that team management is an art.
As for Sébastien, he left finance to become an executioner and left this activity to dedicate himself to NFT marketing. Since February 2021, he has joined the incredible NFT family. First through collectibles, from Veve to Opensea, then moved slightly into gen art and 1: 1.

To finance and manage Streetlab, a Genesis Collection designed by Mexican Street-Artist Yescka may be launched on June 2, 2022. The latter consists of 4444 NFTs. Named the Free Muertos Tribute, it is a limited collection of NFTs consisting of hand -drawn characters.
These characters represent freedom fighters, resurrected from the dead. They guided Street-Artists on the NFT scene to make their voices heard and fight censorship.

First of all, you need to know the price of the NFT Genesis set in Ethereum. So we have to first buying ethereum in an exchange like Etoro.
The Metamask Wallet is the most suitable. Genesis NFTs can then be minted directly on site or purchased at Opensea after each launch.

The Free Muertos Tribute has a special role in managing Streetlab. Collectors of these NFTs get a privileged access to various devices and earnings and share of profits. In addition, the collection contains unique NFTs created by Ethereum blockchains. A strict NFT limit per wallet address will be set to ensure equitable distribution.
In summary, Genesis owners will receive:

All holders are allowed to mark their own projects or products using their NFT Free Muertos and sell them independently.
How Streetlab works
Any artist can access the Streetlab resource center and join the discord community to learn about NFTs. However, in order to be highlighted and promoted on Streetlab, artists must apply by presenting their project itself.
Then, the community sets eligibility criteria so that street artists can apply and promote and sell their works on Streetlab. The idea is agree on what part of street art is and establishing rules that projects must follow in order to be promoted.
Streetlab perfectly illustrates how the blockchain and the metaverse come together in the field of Art. Each member of the community can be a streetlab protector and be able to participate in a selection of the best street artists, ready to embark on the NFT journey.
Referral bonus
Rewarding active community members and encouraging collaboration among colleagues is an important part of Streetlab.io.
For this reason, any genesis holder can sponsor a street artist on the platform. The sponsor will receive 5% of the main sales generated by the targeted artist without affecting the artist’s share.
Bestsellers at Streetlab
Inspired by Artblocks, the platform offers a collection page where you can see drops of artists selected to monetize. There can be two different types of drops: a 1/1 auction or a fixed price collection with some unique pieces.
At Openea, an official Streetlab collection will also be created for the secondary market of all pieces of art created on the Streetlab platform. It will be possible to filter by artists and by sub-collection to easily find what you are looking for.
Streetlab Genesis offers specific benefits to its holders:
- Exclusive drops will be reserved for Streetlab Genesis owners only

- A price reduction for a specific drop
- An airdrop reserved for Streetlab Genesis owners
